Not really. Depends on the game though. A lot would be 480p and still not look right on a 720 or 1080 tv even though it would switch modes to 480. Again though it depends on the game. Some you hold a couple of buttons while loading to access the higher res or something, others in menu options and those with widescreen support will fit a little better etc, but overall I didn't think it was all that great.Quote:

was just wondering since I have a ps2 and had thought about a component cable in the past but couldn't bring myself to buy one.Quote:

Everything seems to work in game. Menus are a little fucked but you can still see what you're doing. The third level - Hoth was unplayably slow though. Then again I'm only on a little core2 so maybe something modern would be fine.
May as well give it a shot. Should be able to find one online for 10 bucks or so.Quote:

Went to bed early and woke up a couple of hours later :(
PS2 component cables will make a difference. I'd still play on a CRT though.
It depends very heavily on the deinterlacing ability of the TV. Other than that it would enable you to run the pitiful handful of progressive scan capable games on the system.Quote:

Did something to my leg. Whole right leg feels like it's in a garbage compactor. Been going on for a few days now. Dunno if I pulled a bunch of muscles or slept weird or what. Took a freakin oxycodone pill because it hurts so bad.
This keeps up I'm gonna have to hobble on over to the hospital.
Also loving this version of Code Veronica on the GC. Getting pretty close to beating it (for the 100th time lol)
3x native, looks fantastic.
I so hate when I load a webpage to look for something then completely forget what it was I was looking for.
Porn :wacko:
no it was ebay. I still can't remember what I wanted to look for.Quote:

it's a pretty good game. I think the best part is the open world driving 1 thing to note the gps is retarded it will almost always try to tell you to drive into oncoming traffic and tell you you're going the wrong way when you're on the correct side of the road heading in the right direction.Quote:

So are the so called HD versions for ps3 etc. any different? Or can you achieve the same level just increasing shit on an emulator?
Also why can't they make more old school style ones? Ya know like Arcade or PSN titles kinda like they did with Sonic 4. Instead of just trotting these stupid slightly higher res versions for every damn new system that comes along. Think it would do well.

One of the hardest games I've ever played on the first playstation. Any chance you could rip it if it's the same one? Can't imagine it would be very big.
Also these painkillers are kicking my fat white ass :lol
